hi everyone,
im new to this site and i hope u can help me a tiny bit.. i am very confused atfer reading some of your messages, i had a misscarriage in december 07, i was 6 weeks pregnant and the doctor said there was no need for d/c as i would pass it myself.
after finding out in june this year that i was pregnant again i was over the moon. i had been going to my doctors and telling them that i had lower back pain and that my morning sickness had stopped and i asked would there be anything wrong in my pregnancy, i was told no.. this went on for 3 weeks, i was given antibiotics for a kidney infection, it didnt seem to go away so i went back to my doctors and told him i didnt feel right, again i was told there was nothing to worry about as my breasts were getting bigger and my belly was also gettin bigger, i had to insist on being sent for a scan as i was still worried as i think that many of us women know our own bodies and can sense when something is wrong even when the doctors think we worry too much!!
When my partner and i eventually got sent for the scan, and after 3 different doctors looking at the scan i was told that the baby had died and that i sufferd a missed misscarriage, i wasnt bleeding at all and was so confused.. they sent me home and told me to come bk within the week if i wanted a d/c.. i was heart broken. I decided it was best to go into hospital the next morning rather than prolonging my agony.. when i went into hospital i asked for another doctor to do a scan so as they were 100% sure. When they done the scan i was then told it was a blighted ovum.. so u can imagine why i am so confused now after reading you letters from other women and seeing that they are saying that the two losses are not the same.. i was 11 weeks pregnant and after my d/c i was told that there would be a funeral for my product of conception (doctors words not mine).. so i am so confused as wether there was a baby or not..
please put my mind at rest before i prepare for my little lost ones funeral
